Abstract
Simultaneous estimation of Poisson logits is considered in a 2xp contingency table under entropy loss. Classical estimators, which are corrected versions of the maximum likelihood estimators, are obtained as generalized Bayes and empirical Bayes estimators. Finally, improved estimators are obtained which dominate the generalized Bayes estimators.
